In the Cage(1898)

 

In the Cage(1898), Henry James depicts the life of a telegraphist connected through a network of information on mental and social levels. The unnamed woman embodies the medium of sending messages and enacts the new abilities as telegraphist through interaction with the machine. Recalling her “A Cyborg Manifesto,” (1985), how do you think Donna Haraway would interpret James’ In the Cage?
